Sharing our smile with the world can have its ups and downs if you're not 100% happy with your pearly whites. Fortunately, through innovative procedures, fixing our smiles can be a much easier process than we think. Haute Beauty<\/em>\u00a0caught up with board-certified dentist Dr. Husam Almunajed <\/a>to discuss why bonding is the best treatment for a quick smile makeover.<\/p>\n

Haute Beauty:<\/em> What is bonding?<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Dr. Husam Almunajed:<\/strong> Bonding is the application of a composite resin material to the existing tooth.\u00a0 Bonding is used for filling cavities, masking discolored teeth, whitening<\/a>, repairing fractures, and making cosmetic improvements\u00a0to the natural tooth usually in one appointment.\u00a0 The resin is applied to the natural tooth to achieve the desired aesthetic<\/a>\u00a0and functional effect.\u00a0 Very little natural tooth reduction is necessary, if at all, and usually, no anesthesia\u00a0is needed making this procedure a conservative, effective and artistic dental restoration.<\/p>\n

HB: What should patients know about this procedure?<\/strong><\/h3>\n

HA:<\/strong> Bonded teeth last 5-8 years or longer, and require professional finishing once every few years.\u00a0 Tips for maintaining your bonded teeth include using a night-guard, refrain from smoking and having your teeth<\/a> cleaned minimally\u00a0twice a year.\u00a0 In addition, just as with your natural teeth, avoiding biting your fingernails, chewing ice, and minimizing your consumption of stain-causing foods and drinks.<\/p>\n

HB: Which patients qualify for this procedure?<\/strong><\/h3>\n

HA:<\/strong> Dentistry today has taken a much more conservative approach.\u00a0 Regular dental visits are crucial to early detection and a proactive method can be taken rather than a reactive method. Small cavities can be re-calcified, removing the need for bonding.\u00a0 Composite bonding is a useful and minimally invasive solution\u00a0that can be replaced over time, when necessary.\u00a0 Especially for young patients, it is important to preserve the teeth as much as possible for the rest of the patient's\u00a0life, composite\u00a0bonding is a much more conservative procedure than a crown and veneer. \u00a0Candidates for tooth bonding are patients<\/a>\u00a0who may have white or brown spots, fractures or staining due to excessive wear or silver fillings, are not heavy smokers or coffee drinkers, and those who want a less invasive, cost-effective option.\u00a0 When planned well, composite resin bonding can be a beautiful treatment choice.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
